[Romulus]

Here is the context:

“The evacuation from New Orleans was a nightmare so people didn’t leave for Katrina.”

If EVERY ONE of the 50,000 rescues you mentioned came from New Orleans only, that would still mean that close to 90% of the population in NOLA either did evacuate or else never required assistance. If those rescues were spread across several parishes, it would only push the evacuation/self-rescue percentage for NOLA even higher. This is why I call it a myth that “people didn’t leave for Katrina” — even as I repeat the critical point that leaving is not the gold standard of prudence, as circumstances vary widely.

And kindly spare me the personal insults; I have not been rude to you.

For the last time, you still have taken the dialogue out of context. It was not written that "no people evacuated for Katrina."

We were discussing the reasons why people do not leave in the face of dire consequences. Again, you overlooked the context.
